Hello guys, I'd like to say that I really appreciate all the work you have done.
Most of the things said here are commong knowledge to good rogues but puting it together and updaing it as a QA thread really helps all of us i believe.
Now to continue with my question. I play an almost BiS geared(pre uld) combat 15-51-5. The only problem I have is with trinkets, as I am cheap and havent gotten the greatness yet(and probably wont with all the new gear).
I usually ran with MoT and Grim Toll and i used to love GT for its passive and proc, espcially since the proc has gone up to 40% up from 30% after 3.1. I had 306 hit total with GT equipped.
On our first Uld raid i got a very interesing trinket from FL10 - [Pyrite Infuser] -

It has more passive hit then GT but has a proc for 1234 AP instead of ArP.
My first idea was to switch the GT with this new trink( PI from now on) and leave the MoT. After the raid though, i decided to do some tests.
Over 1 mil damage on a dummy, unbuffed, i usually do around 3300 dps with MoT and GT. I ran that again just to check, and then ran same period with MoT and PI - increased around 20-30 dps. Not enough testing to come to a conclusion but still some improvement.
Then I got an idea which i now would like to test and share. Using two trinks with hit, GT and PI, i still pulled around 3350 dps over 1 mil of damage, and had 400+ hit now. Both procs have cd's around 45 seconds, but are still very usefull, especially with good timing of KS.
My actual question is, am I correct in assuming that having more hit will benefit me more after being fully raid buffed, so this combination of trinkets would outperform MoT + any of them on say, patchwerk?
And it also means that I am asking a question on rogue buff mechanics in general - does stacking more hit(without losing a lot of other stats) benefit the rogue after full raid buff much more?
Sorry for this wall of text. Just thought this was an interesting thing to test out.
PS - Edited out some mistakes, sorry my english is far from perfect.
